I hear your point on third-party apps loud and clear. Sometime in the 2000s I became a self-proclaimed "platform agnostic" (no OS church, a desire to be productive on any of them). This lead to a long journey in cross-platform-land, third-party apps, and naturally the open source of it all (ideally). My threshold of acceptability for any app is now "give me data files" so I can just use CLI mojo and tools like SyncThing to sysadmin the hell out of my digital life. SyncThing, as I've just found out, is not available on iOS. So clearly (assuming this is a limitation of the system itself regarding filesystem access), that platform cannot fit my IS paradigm. It seems like it could be an "edge" device but even that is pushing it... (sync my flows through some ad-hoc proprietary clouds per app; and then sync from those clouds back to my IS, i.e. one custom path per file type probably... maybe have to resort to IFTTT for some... yeah no that's too much work). Thanks a lot for the perspective. It really helped my see where I fit based on my needs and former experience (I can relate to a lot of what you said).
